Fall To The Game

Pretty little girl
Only 17
Steady trying to figure out why
Boys is so mean
And what is love?
It’s not what it seems
"You love me or you don’t
There’s no in-betweens"
Emotions running high
Making you scream
Praying you’ll wake up
Hoping it’s all a dream
Not just some crazy scheme
To put another drug
Into your bloodstream
Taking more hits
You’re at the extreme
Waiting for the moment
The one chance to redeem
You can’t give up
Got to hold on to those dreams
And somehow make it through.
Hold on to his love
If your love is true
When you say you love him
Does he say he loves you
He says he’s in love
And his feelings is true
But who’s in his bed at night
Does he share it with you
Of course he don’t
Every night
It’s someone new

He breaks your heart
So you build a wall
Never to love again
Then you get his call
And you watch that wall
Crumble & fall
He looks back at you
To watch you tumble and fall
Then laughs when he remembers
What all
He saw
All the pain and tears
Kept hiding for years
The sliced wrists
And blood smears
Poetry filled
With suicidal fears
Tech N9ne’s lyrics
Blaring in her ears
Till the phone rings
And you realize it’s him
You pray he’s calling
To take it all back
Because without you
His life’s off track
He can’t seem to stay off the crack
And his worries just continue to stack
He needs you
To help him through
He wants you
To take him back
So you pick up the phone
"What’s up Baby Girl?
Haven’t talked to you in a while
Dang how I miss
Your pretty little smile
Beautiful face
And sexy style
When you gone come see me
You know you love me still
Don’t threaten to hang up
You can’t hide how you fill
You know those emotions
Is definitely real
You don’t need a high, Baby
I can be your Pill."

Somehow he always knows
The right words to say
How to spit the right game
To put a smile on you face
Thinking of those pretty blue eyes
And dimples on his face
Makes your heart race
He could always put your heart
In the rite place
Till he leaves again
Without a trace
But for the moment he’s here
& he’s got u in the rite place

You ask why he’s calling
You ain’t heard from him in days
"What’s it going to take
For you to change your ways
I can’t keep playing
Your little boyish game
It’s always the same
You ain’t going to change
& I guess maybe
I’m the one to blame
I let my heart melt
At the mention of your name
But I can’t take no more
It’s driving me insane
You was my fire
Now your just a burnt out flame
No I don’t love you still
Because my feelings ain’t the same
And I’m tired of being just another girl in your game."

For a second he says nothing
Then all a sudden
"Cum on baby
You’re just bluffing
You know you miss my loving
Don’t lie to yourself
And say you don’t
Thinking you’ll feel better
Because girl you won’t
That flame’s still burning
Your hearts still burning
You still ain’t learning
Because in the game
You give me another turning
I keep playing because you let me
You’re still in love
And always will be
There won’t ever be a day
You ain’t missing me
Wishing I was there to hold you
But like I told you
It ain’t over till I say it’s over
And it’s over
But wait a minute sweetie
I guess it ain’t
Because you’ll always fall to the game
All you got to hear is the mention of my name
It drives you mad crazy
You’re going insane
But I got you all over again
Feeling the same
And I’ll just keep playing
But you won’t listen
You’ll just keep wishing
And missing
Wanting me to give you a kissing
I’ll lie to your face
I’ll cheat on you
I’ll screw you over
And still you won’t learn
Because in the end
You’ll be back
And I’ll do it again
Baby, I’m not here to be your friend
I’m here for what I can get
Sometime in the games end
And you know I’ll get it
Because you always give in."

You listen as he’s talking
Knowing it’s true
Because what he says
Is exactly what he’ll do
And once again
You’ll fall through
He don’t care about the pain
He puts you through
He’ll get what he wants
Then find someone new
Then later on
He’ll be back to you.
But what’s said is said
What’s done is done
Get it through your head
He’s not the one

You hang up the phone
Too hurt to cry
Stupid enough
To give it another try
You lay in your bed
All alone wondering why
You love him, you know
You cannot lie
But you got to let go
It’s something you can’t deny

So you vow to let go
The pain you won’t show.
You never talk to him again
He’s not your boy
He’s not your friend
You keep your promise
Till the end.
The phone rings
The very next weekend
And the player of the game
Is on the other end.
Do you hang up
Or do you stay on
When you vowed to keep
Those feelings long gone
But how much longer
Can you go on
Pretending to be tough
And trying to be strong
knowing he’s the one
In the wrong?
What’s more important
A promise kept,
The one reason for you to hold on,
Or making a decision
You’ll regret in the end?

You make your decision
It’s always the same
You pick up the phone
And fall to the game
